SIX [Video/Action]

[When the recording first starts, Chili just stares at his journal, looking lost. There are entirely too many boxes of pastries and donuts entirely cleaned out save for some stray sprinkles, gathered all around him.

He brightens up rather quickly, though, wearing a big grin and presenting compass.]

Hi, this is Chili!

I'm looking for Mars! She saved me when I was in a real jam, so me an' Pansear have been trying to find her, but... has anyone seen her?

Long black hair, red skirt, looks kinda like those schoolgirls from Kanto...

Um, I think she's a Firebender? Anyone know for sure?

I gotta return something to her!

[Smiling, she turns to face him more fully, revealing that she's standing on a crutch, with a bandage around her right leg. ~~Because that detail slipped the mun's mind~~]

I do, yes. Though, I prefer casablancas. These are a reminder of friends of mine who've left Luceti.

[Now, she's not sure exactly what a Pansear is but she has a guess.]

Pansear is your ape friend? I hope he's doing alright, too.

[He blinks in surprise, wings fluttering when he startles, before wincing.

He doesn't comment, because she's smiling and talking about flowers, so maybe now's not the right time to bring it up.

He nods, brightening up again.] Yeah, that's Pansear, my partner Pokemon! He's recovering.

... I hope your friend's gone somewhere nice, somewhere peaceful.

[She appreciates the thought, as enough people have commented on her leg, and she offers him her most radiant smile. She's somewhat familiar with Pokemon, though only nominally. Enough to know that they aren't pets, and that she hadn't used the wrong term.]

Well tell him I hope he gets better soon.

[Still smiling, though somewhat more wistfully, she gestures at the two flowers.]

The first is for my friend, who's back home enjoying life. The second is for my queen, who protects a paradise kingdom. They're both happy, safe, and at peace.

Thanks, I'll be sure to tell him that! He'll appreciate it.

... that sounds incredible.

[Chili looks at the flowers in wonder.] ... but, if it's a paradise, why are you a soldier? Don't tell me you're an angel? The real deal?

[These wings certainly give that impression, but Rei's words solidify it.]

[Mars shakes her head, laughing slightly.]

In some ways, maybe. It's not an easy thing to explain, and I don't know everything about it myself. The Queen was from my future, when she was here. She told me I was destined to be one of her inner circle. That I'd become a goddess, like her. But that's a long, long time from now, Chili-san. And even a paradise needs guardians.

Though, for now? I'm just Sailor Mars, the soldier of flame.

[He's just going to give her the most enthralled, wide-eyed look. She's amazing, she really is!]

What a cool future...!

[Ah, are we forgetting why we're here, Chili? He suddenly straightens, finally bringing his hands out in front of him and presenting the compass back to her.]

I'm really sorry for taking so long to give it back to you, Sailor Mars!

[She reaches out and accepts the compass, nodding her thanks.]

It's perfectly alright.

[Her expression turns rueful, a self-deprecating grin on her face.]

You needed to recover, and I did too. Did it help you, though?

[His smile dies on his lips at being questioned about what transpired; he really would rather forget the entire ordeal, but he nods:]

Yeah, definitely.

Found my brother, but I also found Ash before 'em.

[Wearing a small smile now:] I meant it when I said I owed you one, by the way!

What would you like, Miss Mars~?

Good. I'm glad.

[She is all too happy to drop that line of questioning.]

And...what would I like? Um...well, I can't think of anything I really need, honestly. Unless you know how to turn a sprain into a healthy leg. But, what did you have in mind?
